Long-term Monitoring of Accreting Pulsars with Fermi GBM
Mark H. Finger, Elif Beklen, P. Narayana Bhat +9
Using the Gamma ray Burst Monitor (GBM) on Fermi we are monitoring accreting pulsar systems. We use the rates from GBM's 12 NaI detectors in the 8-50 keV range to detect and monito…
All-Sky Earth Occultation Observations with the Fermi Gamma Ray Burst Monitor
Colleen A. Wilson-Hodge, E. Beklen, P. N Bhat +10
Using the Gamma Ray Burst Monitor (GBM) on-board Fermi, we are monitoring the hard X-ray/soft gamma ray sky using the Earth occultation technique. Each time a source in our catalog…
Discovery of a New Torque Reversal of the Accreting X-ray Pulsar 4U 1626-67 by Fermi/GBM
A. Camero-Arranz, M. H. Finger, N. R. Ikhsanov +2
Recent X-ray observations by Fermi/GBM discovered a new torque reversal of 4U 1626-67 after 18 years of steady spinning down. Using Swift/BAT observations we were able to center th…
The first cyclotron harmonic of 4U 1538-52
J. J. Rodes-Roca, J. M. Torrejón, I. Kreykenbohm +3
Cyclotron resonant scattering features are an essential tool for studying the magnetic field of neutron stars. The fundamental line provides a measure of the field strength, while…
New Torque Reversal and Spin-Up of 4u 1626- 67 Observed by Fermi/GBM and Swift/BAT
A. Camero-Arranz, M. H. Finger, N. R. Ikhsanov +2
After about 18 years of steadily spinning down, the accretion-powered pulsar 4U 1626-67, experienced a torque reversal at the beginning of 2008. For the present study we have used…
